    Much like what Arkham Asylum did for Batman games, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order sets the new standard for Star Wars titles. Not only is it a great Star Wars game, it is also the best game of the year.

    Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order captured the magic of growing as a Jedi, overcoming insurmountable odds through fellowship, and the power of hope in the midst of despair. If Respawn’s delivery of Jedi: Fallen Order is the future of the Star Wars franchise out of EA, the franchise is in incredible hands. The Force is strong with these ones.

    Being an EA game, albeit developed by Respawn Entertainment, I had some doubts, but they were quickly dispelled. It stands as proof that single-player games can stand on their own. The only problem is that if you rush through it, you could finish Fallen Order in about 12 hours, but that excludes finding the secrets and unlocking all the cool stuff. Lastly, I have to mention the name, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. To me, it sounds like Star Wars Jedi could be a new line of games, with Fallen Order being just the first one. We can only dream.

    Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is the Star Wars game that fans have been crying out for years now. While it doesn't do anything new, its clear inspirations from Dark Souls and Tomb Raider have helped to create an epic, sprawling adventure that'll have you ready for more the moments the credits roll. If only there had been more of it, because once I started, I didn't want to stop.

    An excellent entry into the new Star Wars canon.

    Respawn did nothing to reinvent the wheel, but instead married a bunch of popular gameplay genres together into a cohesive whole, wrapped up in well-crafted Star Wars story. It may not be KOTOR levels of greatness, but it's good. And I think that's exactly what fans needed right about now.

    As underwhelmed as I was by Fallen Order, I hope that its inevitable success will encourage EA to do more with this franchise, since it makes a powerful case for the resonance of Star Wars — if this mediocre casserole of concepts yanked from superior titles didn’t have the license attached, I doubt anyone would be talking about it.

    Very well done, totally worth the time. Respawn got it right, and finally EA respected the process. Cant wait to finish it.

    Took me over 15 hours the whole campaign on Jedi-Master. Here are my thoughts.

    Pro :
    - Graphics (they are good. Not Super but good enough to be in this section)
    - Free Cosmetics/Collectibles (which is not common for publisher like EA)
    - Story started interesting and i had some flashbacks when i enjoyed the star wars battlefront 2 campaign where you play the story of the 501st that had to go throgh a lot of stuff.
    - Castlevania Like was ok for this one
    - Single Player Game
    - No Microtransaction
    - You get the Deluxe Edition with Premier Access (around 15 bucks a month.)
    - Stunning panorama
    - A small amount of Characters are interesting
    - Characters Animation/Expression are good/ok in little scenes/sequences

    CONS :
    They are the reason why this game has only a 7/10 and is closer to a 6/10
    - Combat System is horrible on Jedi Master and upwards.
    - Extremely dumb A.I.. they stop chasing you after you run out of their "spawn location" and as soon as you enter a new set of the map.
    - You can simply run through the map without killing any troops because they "don't matter". If you want to speedrun the campaign. But nothing will wait for you after the campaign. Nothing.. Legit.. Nothing.
    - The Story itself is completely obsolete if you think about Star Wars IV. Nothing matter at the end because Luke Skywalker is going to smack the Empire anyway. Or have you ever heard of a Jedi called "Cal" ?
    - Camera problems.
    - Most Characters lack personality or have seen only Screen time because "reasons" (Merrin is just there. Cool Character but i have no clue why this character is there at the end. It looks unfinished to me.)
    - The After-Credit Scene is one of the MOST IMPORTANT THINGS in a Single player, and they didn't use this at all.
    - 60€ for a 10-15 hour campaign/ Singleplayer is overpriced at this rate of quality but its worth for 15€ Premier Access. I would pay 40-45€ for the Game itself.

    Star Wars Jedi: Fallen order is a ok to almost good Singleplayer Star Wars Game. Im extremely interested in the Story itself and wish they would have gotten more in depth about the transformation from Clone Troops to Stormtroopers.. Republic to Empire. The First third of the Game is awesome.. the second half is more of a "I need to learn that and it feels like a Sekiro had sex with Castlevania" but the end felt a bit rushed and stopped with an open end but i had not the feel of "I WANT MORE" it left me with a lot of confusion. Unfinished. I want them to continue this Singleplayer and improve certain things. The most important part to improve is the combat system.

Beginning was fantastic, everything was on point. But as first location was interesting and very well designed almost all of the rest was dull and crappy looking. I had terrible amounts of such annoying bugs on PC. Story is really nice but it's pain in the A to reach the end of it... Game isn't long but it could be seriously boring due to backtracking previous locations ... After all it is a good game but only if you are a star wars fan, the atmosphere of this universe is always brilliant. I have a really big expectations for the sequel! Expand

I have those mixed feelings of wanting to see what happens next because I'm enjoying a lot, and the "oh, I most slow down, i'm getting closer and closer to the end".

    In general the game is a platform genre game, where you have times where you have to look around the map to see how do you have to get to the next area, but nothing difficult in general, but a few puzzles takes some time to resolve.
    There are also lots of fights, that are well executed. The "normal" fights against a vast variety of stormptroopers and creatures are difficult enough to make them entertraining. You have also abilities you learn through out the game by a level buying system (idk how its called). The boss fights will take your time. They are hard and you will have to learn through a lot of tries how to beat your enemy. Patience is your friend.

    The levels/planets takes their time to be completed, and at all moments you feel like you are really in a Star Wars adventure movie. They made an excellent ambientation, and the levels are well designed in my opinion. All of them are quiet unique. Graphically, this game is beautiful.

    The history isn't any less than the gameplay in general. It's the best part of the game for the game, and thats a lot to say taking in count the gameplay it has. I enjoyed it from beggining to end.
